Time To Let Go

Published by Family Friend Poems February 2006 with permission of the Author.

Today I sat and tried my best to think.
If it could end your life why would you drink?
I wish I knew how to change your mind.
Life is too precious to leave it all behind.
How can you just turn around and walk away.
When we need a dad here for us today.
Is that what you want the easy way out?
To leave this world without any doubt.
So stop a minute and take a deep breath.
Drinking like this could lead to your death.
Think of everything you have before you choose.
If you don't stop drinking that is what you will lose.
After all these years there is one thing I now know.
If I love you this much it time to let go.

There I am standing looking in the mirror, tears rolling down my face,
thinking, 'Why is it that this world is all going wrong? Is it the human race?,
Is this world meant for people to fight, argue, scream and not live in peace?
Is this the way people want to live?
I lay down on my bed and another thought came to mind. There is always another way around the hatred in this world. There will be and always will be, another door leading to love. Then I smiled to myself and whispered ''Yeah, I want to live through that door.''

Go let go, but letting go could be so hard, go let go, when you see your not the same and everyone's talking about you like a dog. Go let go, so many people could be so fake acting like they care but from your two dollars they would take. Never asking one time how could I help, because obviously this isn't me, I'm not myself. Go let go, I'm trying but it won't leave and I'm too weak to help myself, someone help me please. Go let go, why! Why won't you leave? You've ruined my life and took me from my wife, what more do you want? Go let go, just GO LET GO!!! I'm trying but maybe it's to strong it's moved to the marrow of my bones. Go let go, god please help me Go cause it won't let go.
